HowDid I Make My First $250,000

Some people say making the first $250,000 is the hardest.

I can say it took the longest part of my life. Over two decades.

Now in my fifth decade. I have done it twice. Gone from a net worth of zero in the first part. After losing over $150,000 on paper in the second part and having a net worth of just over $3,000 I have passed the net worth of $250,000 again.

How did I do it?

I actually began back home in England. At no time did I have an exceptionally high paying job. Sometimes just begining with $100 a month. Mostly working minimum wage jobs. My highest paid job earned me just $15 (equivalent) per hour.

Was it easy? No.

The story involves, love, death, business savvy and an eye to the future.
